Throughout the ups and downs, Caitlyn's intentions are perfectly clear: She wants to speak up for a community that hasn't received the attention and respect it deserves.

"Because of my status, everyone is looking at me as the spokesperson for the transgender community," she admits. "I'm thinking about my family and I'm thinking about all this kind of stuff and I'm struggling with it."

She adds, "What I'm hoping for is that the world is going to follow along with me. And we can learn together."
